Brothers from another mother...

Our old neighbors in Bakersfield keep in touch with us regularly and we try to see each other as often as schedules permit. We are fortunate enough to have their 2 boys, Brandon (11) and Tyler (13), staying here at Camp Grove this week. I met them in Burbank yesterday for the switchoff at Hooters, of course. With all that testosterone around, where else would you take teen boys to eat?? They will be here until Thursday evening when we do the meet-up and pass off again, then they'll return mid month and end of month to visit Casa Grove when they are in town for Tyler's soccer tourneys. We just leave the light on for them!

Xander and Hannah have been so excited for their visit. Xander refers to them as his "brothers from another mother" and Hannah calls them cousins, I guess you can tell how close our friendship is, they are actually extended family for us vagabonds who don't put down roots too often.

I will post some photos of our "sons" this week. They are all out surfing currently and since we have annual passes, I think we are headed to the SD Zoo & Wild Animal Park or Sea World tomorrow, it should be a fun week with lots of pictures to post.
